R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment:

Hynek: you said "just like EEXIST", which doesn't check to see if the directory 
exists before continuing, thus my confusion.

If mkdir -p does a stat first, then changing the makedirs algorithm to match is 
probably not a bad idea for OS compatibility reasons, with autofs just being an 
example of why.
